For those that have seen the movie, do they explain why Lydia has the same damn haircut she had when she was 15 years old?

[squirrels_oh_no]

Because she is that strange and unusual.

I have the same haircut I had at 15 lol. Lydia is a woman who clearly cuts her own hair as well. But since it's the same exact style, perhaps it's an Ariana Grande situation hahah.

And the same outfits. Felt like she was stuck in the year the trauma started
